+Lambda runs your code on some version of Amazon Linux. It would be a less than ideal customer experience if you are forced to build your application on that platform and that platform only.
 
 However, the freedom to build on any linux distro brings a challenge. The GNU C Library ABI. There is no guarantee the platform used to build the Lambda function has the same GLIBC version as the one used by AWS Lambda. In fact, you might not even be using GNU's implementation. For example you could build a C++ Lambda function using musl libc.

    - Starting with [v0.2.0](https://github.com/awslabs/aws-lambda-cpp/releases/tag/v0.2.0) you should see a stack-trace of the crash site in the logs (which are typically stored in CloudWatch).
